Can anyone help me with the following - I know my Great Grandmother was born in Sunderland in 1888 and she lived there all her life but I cannot find her or any family on 1901 census returns. She was Mary Elizabeth Bransby born April 1888 in Sunderland. Unfortunately don't know any family names as I have just ordered her birth cert from ONS. Cheers Kay |

At least I've got something to be going on with. I believe Marys father was a miner - living round that area you either worked in the pits or the Yards. |
